***About the Saguaro Cactus:

*** The Saguaro Cactus, native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, is more than just a plant; it is a symbol of the desert’s beauty and resilience. Growing up to 40 feet tall, saguaros are distinguished by their towering, tree-like columnar structure, which can live for over 150 years. These cacti are pivotal to the desert ecosystem, providing habitat and nourishment to numerous desert dwellers. Their blossoms, the state flower of Arizona, bloom in the late spring and are primarily pollinated by bats. The Saguaro’s fruit, which ripens in the summer heat, is a vital resource for local wildlife and was also historically significant to indigenous cultures, such as the Tohono O'odham people.
